At £22 it will likely be a lot cheaper to just replace the regulator than have a service person look at it. :wink:

Should be pretty simple.

You are right Bob.
It can be a bit fiddly because you are working in the small Wellhouse cylinder cupboard but easy enough to do with only two mounting screws and two hoses to connect. Obviously you need check to make sure there are no gas leaks from the hose connections.

The current one also has an earth connection - does that sound right?

Yes, I think that is earthing the gas pipes so that if they become 'live' because of an electrical problem in the conversion it will blow a fuse.

All sorted now and working. The bulkhead regulator was blocked. Has now been replaced 😀

=D> \:D/ Glad it was an easy fix in the end, without paying the 'experts' (so much for their diagnosis of not enough pressure from the Camping Gaz cylinder :roll: )
